Calculated the gravitational potential energy of a 93.0 kg sky diver who is 550 m above the ground

1 answer:

4 0

Equation for Gravitation Potential Energy...
GPe = m·g·h
where m = mass in kg = 93.0 kg
g = force of gravity = 9.81 m/s²
h = height in meters = 550m

GPe = mgh
GPe = (93)(9.81)(550)
GPe = 501781.5 Joules (J)
GPe = 5.02 x 10⁵ J (rounded & in scientific notation)

Therefore, the gravitational potential energy of a person of mass 93.0kg who is 550m above the ground is GPe = 501781.5 Joules (J)

Hope this helps!

Calculate the potential energy of a 5 kg object sitting at the top of a 2 meter ramp.

trapecia [35]

The formula used to find potential energy is P.E. = M * G * H (P.E. is potential energy, M is mass, G is gravitational pull, and H is height). So the answer to your question is 5 * 9.8 * 2, which equals 98.
